[PATCH 2/4] libnvdimm: eliminate a meaningless spinlock operation

[Zhen Lei]

badrange_add() take the lock "badrange->lock", but it's released
immediately in add_badrange(), protect nothing. Because the static
function add_badrange() is only called by badrange_add(), so spread its
content into badrange_add(), and move "kfree(bre_new)" out of the lock
protection.
